Imagine waiting for years to be on Jeopardy and you finally get called for your taping and it's against this guy

Crazy. I stay in South Africa and had no clue what Jeopardy was till I read about James Holzhauer. Now I cant stop watching it!

He's just a very calm, confident, and aggressive player.

Before James started the one day record was $77,000 and 2nd place was $75,000. He is averaging $75,825 every day! He is just a phenom.

Lowkey I feel bad for whoever goes against him. James a legend

It took Ken Jennings around 30 days to get a million. Impressive how James did it in half the time.

Omg thank you for recording this I just got in & missed the whole episode, thx again! 😀👍

This is amazing! Been watching every day of the week!

Good thing the staff at Jeopardy were able to have a 7-figure amount fit in that purple box on screen lol

Who was surprised when the voice came in? 2:04

Thanks I hit wrong button & missed the final! This guy is rocking it!

It's so crazy that one guy can have ALL of that knowledge about EVERYTHING!!!

That James has a mind so sharp it can cut through all the questions on Jeopardy

He needs to keep going to compensate for the game winning tax

Due to a storm knocking out our power, we saw the episode right up until final. We were so upset - until we found this! Thank you!

He's "Must See TV" and we can't look away

He's the Babe Ruth of Jeopardy. Babe Ruth in 1920 hit more home runs by himself than 8 other teams in the league. Unreal

OMG ONE MILLION DOLLARS BABY!!!!!!!!!!! I just gotta say, this amazing run so far has been one hell of an awesome thing to witness.

Thanks for recording, since TV failed to record!

I WANNA MEET THIS GUY!!! HE'S A FREAKING GENIUS!! LIKE TO SEE HIM GO AGAINST KEN JENNINGS...

i love your honest surprise at the end.

Genius!!! Loving watching him play!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

Because of the game show scandals in the 1950's, Jeopardy was born in 1964. Merv Griffin's wife (at the time) suggested giving constants the answers. Amazing after 55 years it is still going strong. So happy for you Mr. Holzhauer. Las Vegas, NV April 26, 2019

This guy is a legend already no doubt about it

I would encourage everyone to read about both Grant and Lee. Both were so interesting.

Thank you for posting. I'm usually asleep when Jeopardy is on, so I forget to wake up and watch it. Now I don't have to watch the entire episode

Never play kahoot with this guy

Watched a recent episode with James and couldn't believe the "softball" answers in the categories. I'm usually "OK" when playing along at home - getting a good number of them right - but I nearly swept the board on that episode. I get it, though: James' streak is driving ratings and making advertisers happy, too. He's become "must-see" TV, even for casual fans of the program.

James Holzhauer will end up in Jeopardy's Tournament of Champions.

I am enjoying watching him win. He knows a lot.

Thank you !!

It has been so much fun watching James win and break records! I wonder how long he will continue 🤷‍♀️🎉

I missed it on TV. THANKS ... What a Brain Tank!

That “holy cow” got me

This is fricking insane man. This guy is a legend. Also many people have won jeopardy with around $15,000 or less. I feel bad for the 2nd & 3rd place here.

Hopefully in the future I want to see James Holzhauer, Ken Jennings and Watson all face off in a tournament.

I respect him for his knowledge -

He is very good at trivia, but he is also amazing at the game theory. dangerous combo.

Cannot wait to see him on TOC with other Jeopardy! beasts like Ken and Brad. Whew!

After that kid is done with Jeopardy they are going to have to file for bankruptcy

My area has this on at 7:30 EST but I just "risked" myself and watched this instead. It was really worth it.

This guy is the living phrase "Knowledge is power"

This guy dominated on The Chase from GSN; I'm really liking his approach and I really hope it keeps going and dominating. 😄😄😄❤❤❤

At 2:08, when Alex announces James' total winnings so far $1,061,554, you can hear the crowd going "WHOO!" as they're impressed and are happy that James did it, he passed the $1M mark. It must've been great for Alex, too because this was the first time in 15 years that he had been able announce someone's total winnings starting with the words, "One million." It's great that this contestant came along BEFORE Alex's passing because Alex really enjoyed having James on the show. Alex actually found out that he had cancer during James' run. James' daughter even made a get well card for Alex. That's sweet. Along with the thousands of other get well cards Alex got.

He did that in 14 days!!!!

awesome shirt! also this was his most dominant game yet. He had thousands before they even had 1000 hhhaha

Incredibly impressive, but that was a give-away question for Final Jeopardy.

1:40 Guy in 3rd gave the death stare

I am sure we all remember Ken Jennings winning streak, not as high, but was unbeatable for a long time!

What a brain. Ken Jennings didn't do it this way. I think this guy is probably the JEOPARDY G.O.A.T. It is the way he is doing it. Total domination.

5 episodes a day!? This definitely makes it even harder to do what hes doing ! 😮

This guy is an absolute monster. What domination!!

He's an Awesome machine!

Respect him & his strategy. Law of averages means he'll meet his match or simply will not have the answer. Competition will give rise to a better person with a contrarian approach. Maybe one who wants when others fail? Seen cons in black jack who don't hit. 50% of time all bust but the con. Jennings run was longest because he was smarter & bet conservatively. Would take down while category, entering zone. This guy turns J upside down. Props.

He is a Walking Encyclopedia.

James' total that game was almost FOUR TIMES the combined amount of his two opponents.

I don't watch Jeopardy but seeing this is awesome. I'm glad they got rid of the 5 day max for a contestant. I'd love to be the one to beat him!

James reached a million in just 2 weeks

He's like the Babe Ruth of Jeopardy! James, Brad and Ken will have to meet up soon.

James Holzhauer passed the $1,000,000 mark! Except for Ken Jennings, no other contestant on Jeopardy has ever been able to do that.

So if he would've missed the question he still would've womn by a thousand or so. What a move.

Pure genius

This dude is a beast! Its really a fight for second place 😕

Nobodys ever gonna beat this guy

You're doing good, James! Only $1,459,146 away!

One of them is my principal, not joking.

That must have been too easy because I would have gotten it right also.

2:03 is when the commentary begins

Gotta love Alex Trebek's reaction.

AHHHH TODAY’S JEOPARDY SHOW (4/29/19) GAVE ME SO MUCH ANXIETY. THAT OTHER DUDE ALMOST BEAT JAMES

ROFL at 1:30 Alex Trebek was TOTALLY panicking when he read "Love you guys???" He was just HOPING that's what it was!!!

He just may be the next Ken

Holy cow is right

First the chase now jeopardy. This guy is a robot

Wasn’t James on another game show not too long ago called the Chase on the game show network?

He’s the Alex Honnold of Jep

Daily winning of jeopardy champ holzhauer

I know zip about history, but, that was a damned easy question - when I can guess the Final Jeopardy question correctly, they're lowering the bar....lol.

We're still seeing James vs. 2 people who've never heard of him. When the broadcasts catch up enough that the competition has at least seen him in action, they might stand a chance.

I'll bet he is sending ratings thru the roof! Glad for Alex he gets to host this guy's run.

Gotta wonder how far he can go with this, I’m betting at least 2 million

Hello friend, is it possible to record the full episode today the 26th please?

the master - wow - awesome

That's not a lot of money for a show thats made 100 s of millions in 3 decades. But I guess its because this guy is getting the answers.

I guessed the question right and my name is Claudia..wow

I decided to compare the other players who hit 14 or more games to the big kahuna over here, and all I can say is WOW (note: all calculations are rounded down or up) - Ken Jennings: $471,759 / 14 = $33,697 average per game - Matt Amodio: $440,600 / 14 = $31,471 average per game - Jason Zuffranieri: $399,543 / 14 = $28,539 average per game - David Madden: $333,301 / 14 = $23,807 average per game - Julia Collins: $284,100 / 14 = $20,293 average per game And then… *James: $1,061,554 / 14 = $75,825 average per game* Nobody had been able to crack the $500,000 mark after 14 games before, and all of a sudden James comes out swinging and shatters a mark double that in the same time span. Really shows how far ahead of his time he was.

If he plays the tournament of champions, he'll become the first person to win more than $250k because his 2-day winnings will exceed $250k

"Holy cow" 😊

Photographic memory

1M MOMENT.

Why can't I be this smart?! 😩😖

He needs to actually bet a bit less on the 2nd daily double with the lead if he wants to keep winning and break the 74 win streak. He only has about a %96 chance to get it right. The harder the category and question is expected to be, obviously the less he should bet. It's weird because the value of 30k to 60k is ~60k for him, but the destruction of 30k to 0 is literally millions. He has so much equity in future games that it would be a shame to lose one. He essentially is wagering $1,000,000 to win $55k sometimes The math is basically Daily double x2 plus x2 from final jeopardy on correct answer vs all the $$$ from future shows combined if he had bet smaller and won, for a wrong answer.

He honestly could not have had an easier Final Jeopardy question, though

The faces of all who play against James says it all !

Good thing this guy didn't pull a Cliff Clavin.

dat man is the jeopardy cash stealer

Ninja: stealth and deadly

Time traveller from the future is my bet.

they should have him play the IBM computer
